The absorption and fluorescence spectra, the fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes of fluorescein and three series of alkylated fluorescein, namely, esters, ethers and ester ethers of fluorescein in SDS, CTAB and TX-100 micelles, were investigated. The interactions between the dyes and micelles, and the existing structure forms of the dyes in micelles were also studied. All alkylated fluore...

In the past few months there have been discussions — online and elsewhere — regarding fluorescein elimination in breast milk and recommendations for lactating patients undergoing fluorescein angiography. The desire to perform fluorescein angiography on postpartum women raised concerns regarding safety to the nursing infant and it was unknown if women should refrain from nursing following fluore...

Excited state dynamics of deprotonated and protonated fluorescein were investigated by polarization dependent femtosecond time-resolved pump-probe photofragmentation in a 3D ion trap. Transients of deprotonated fluorescein exhibit vibrational wavepacket dynamics with weak polarization dependence. Transients of protonated fluorescein show only effects of molecular alignment and rotational dephas...

were first recorded in India, by the present writers in Rao and Ray (1932). Since then, other workers, notable among them being Muir and Chatterjee (1932 and 1933) and Chatterjee (1933), have-attempted to study the action of Mercurochrome as well as that of one of its constituents, viz, fluorescein, in leprosy. Ryrie (1934) has further continued to study the influence of fluorescein on ' lepra ...

The characteristics of the transcapillary transfer of fluorescein dye in the optic disc of healthy individuals has been studied. A diffusible fluorescein dye and a nondiffusible reference substance, indocyanine green (ICG), which was assumed to remain in the capillaries, were injected into the circulatory system. The time courses of the concentrations of the two dyes in the optic disc were dete...
